This was great! Though we're not vegetarians we tend to lean more towards vegetarian meals. So in place of the ground turkey, we used some soy andouille. And omitted the rosemary because the andouille has quite a bit of seasoning. Oh, and I was out of heavy cream and used half/half in it's place. Probably not as heavy, but really yummy! We'll keep and do this one again.

Wow-- this was so good. I especially liked the squash, and I'm not usually a huge fan of squash! Did some substitutions, based on the ingredients I had (elbow macaroni instead of penne, mild Italian sausage instead of turkey sausage). Based on previous reviews, I did also nuke the squash in the microwave for 3 minutes before cutting into it, as well as preheating the baking sheet, and also adding butter and chopped garlic to the squash. I cooked at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, then gently turned the squash cubes and cooked for 15 more minutes at 400 degrees (for carmelization on one side of the squash). Yum, yum, yum! Thanks for a great recipe.

Delish! I used ground turkey with some cayenne pepper, white pepper, allspice and Italian seasonings added to create the sausagey flavor. Also, as per other reviews, I added some butter and a clove of garlic to the onion and squash while roasting. The balsamic vinegar was the key; it completely transformed the dish from ordinary to awesome! Well done!

I used this recipe as a guide, but changed a few things based on reading other's reviews. I added about 5 cloves of garlic to the cookie sheet before roasting the squash. While the squash and garlic were roasting, I caramelized 1 medium onion in about 2 tbsp of butter. Please note that I omitted the balsamic vinegar completely from this recipe, but I did use dried sage, since I didn’t have fresh on hand. After the turkey sausage was completely cooked, I kept the flame on medium-low and added the caramelized onions to the pan, then added about ¾ cup of chicken broth, ¼ cup half and half, ¼ cup of fresh, grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and a dash of dried rosemary. I stirred this quite frequently. When the squash and garlic were done I added them to the sausage and onion mixture, being careful not to stir too vigorously so the squash cubes would remain intact. I used fresh linguine instead of penne, and as soon as the pasta was cooked, I drained it and poured the sausage mixture over it in a wide pasta bowl. For a finishing touch, I tore bits of fresh basil and tossed it on top. My husband and 7 year daughter devoured it! Take a look at my photo of this lovely dish! It was very flavorful. I may make it again using pork sausage!

we love this! I used sweet Italian sausage ( cubed 1/2 in). Instead of roasting the squash ( also cubed 1/2 in.) and onion I sauteed them on med. high heat in a little olive oil, and in the same pan as I cooked the sausage. They carmelized nicely and the squash held its shape well.I also added some fresh sage to the sautee. After adding the half & half, more fresh sage, and a sbout a 1//3 cup fresh Parmesan cheese I let the sauce sit while the pasta cooked to blend the flavors. It was a great hit with the whole family.

Very good, but dry. As other reviewers have noted, I used milk with cornstarch instead of cream, but I almost tripled the amount of liquid to keep the dish from being too dry. Other than that, great mix of flavors.

I followed the recipe to the letter. I made double the amount and gave some away to a few friends so they wouldn't have to cook. When we started eating dinner NO ONE liked the recipe. I think it was the balsamic vinegar that turned everyone off. I will NOT be making this recipe again. We REALLY didn't like it at all.

Although this recipe was a lot of work, it tasted delicious! My 1year old & 3 year old not only ate it, but had seconds! I did not have butternut squash, but I had yellow summer squash; it turned out great!

I am relatively new to the recipe scene after only staying in my own home for 7 months now but I have tried a number of things by for imagination and just beautiful taste, this is by far my favourite. I cooked it exactly as described, maybe adding more cream than suggested by its paid of regardless. I still feel that it will take something out of the world to receive a 5 star rating but it takes nothing away from this meal. Easy to prepare, cook and for the time taking, its worth every last drop.

I made some modifications, but the basic idea is great and I'll be making this one again! I roasted the squash w/ olive oil, sage, a tbls of butter and a bit of chicken stock. We had neither sausage nor balsamic vinegar, but we had chicken breasts and vinaigrette salad dressing, so I baked the chicken w/ the vinaigrette and it came out super tender and tasty. I chopped that up, tossed it and the squash together w/ the pasta, a splash of milk (no cream in the house, and we didn't want a heavy meal) and some parmesan cheese. It was divine!

I really enjoyed this recipe. I didn't have sausage on hand so I used chicken breast chunks. It was a little bland, but I think making it with sausage would make up for that. I will be making this again!

This was just divine. I made a couple of alterations. i used skim milk instead of the cream to cut down the fat and added some diced up summer squash to the sauce as I had some I wanted to use up. I did forget to add the balsamic vinegar to my portion last night but I will remember to do that for the leftovers. Oh yes, I didn't have sausage so I used chicken breast. I really want to try this sometime when I can get my hands on some fresh sage. I looked in the store and there was none to be found

i think this recipe would be delicious without the cream. Nothing against cream sauces, but browned butter, sage and balsamic makes a delicious sauce. I'm sure it would be amazing with the sausage and butternut squash!

My daughter made this today. She used ground turkey burger in place of the turkey sausage. She also used some (not the 2 tsp.) poultry seasoning (did not have any sage) and left out the vinegar. She made it lighter using skim milk in place of the cream. She will definately be making this again! Great recipe!!!

To be fair, I will preface this review by saying we did make some significant modifications to this recipe. First of all, we veganized it so we replaced the turkey sausage with vegan style sausage crumbles. Also, we used a vegan style creme instead of the heavy cream. That being said, we weren't impressed with the taste. As another review noted, it tasted bland, like it needed something else to pull everything together. We also tried doing half with the balsamic vinegar and half without (since I don't like balsamic vinegar but my husband does). My hubby tried both versions and said the balsamic vinegar was just a strange addition.

I customized, I roasted the squash for about 45 minutes to give it those nice carmelized edges. I omited the sage completely. I used milk and a touch of cornstarch instead of cream. AND I added a skant 1/4 cup parmasean cheese. I loved it and it made enough for leftovers for lunch.
